Few destinations in Italy capture the imagination quite like Lake Como, and soon, it will welcome a new chapter in luxury travel. Marriott International is preparing to disclose its first EDITION hotel on the lake’s western shore in March 2026, promising to reshape what a five-star retreat means in this famous region. This bold arrival positions Marriott’s EDITION brand as the crown jewel for younger, style-conscious luxury travelers enthusiastic for something beyond the classic grand hotels.
Marriott’s first EDITION hotel on Lake Como promises a fresh, stylish take on luxury, redefining the region’s five-star experience.
The new hotel is set within a restored 19th-century palazzo, where timeless Italian architecture meets contemporary design in a way that sparks curiosity and admiration. Carefully orchestrated by Marriott, Bain Capital Credit, and Omnam Group, the project entwines Italian tradition with EDITION’s modern elegance and vibrant energy. In every room, guests will find Calacatta marble and custom walnut elements that reflect EDITION’s commitment to refined interior design. Additionally, the property’s limited availability and exceptional views enhance its appeal in a region known for property scarcity. The area’s real estate market has been valued at €2.77 billion, highlighting its strong international interest.
From its waterfront location, guests will enjoy clear views of the Bellagio mountains and surrounding peaks, making each sunset a potential Instagram moment. Inside, custom furnishings by acclaimed design firm Neri&Hu feature rich Calacatta marble, bespoke walnut, and the calming blue hues of the lake, making every room—whether a suite, penthouse, or a private villa—feel like a serene lakeside escape. Many rooms offer restored French balconies for unhurried mornings or enchanting evenings with the lake as a constant companion.
Culinary enthusiasts will find cause for celebration, too. Under the expertise of award-winning Chef Mauro Colagreco, EDITION’s dining venues promise flavors as unforgettable as the views. The lively lobby bar and waterfront terraces foster a sense of community while providing a timeless scene for both cultural travelers and locals.
Meanwhile, the Longevity Spa, with its thermal pool and immersive wellness rituals, makes well-being unavoidable in the best possible way. The property’s floating pool and private dock deliver unrivaled access to water adventures, with even the path from Milan made easy.
Whether it’s a relaxing retreat or the thrill of lakeside living, Marriott’s daring debut on Lake Como signals not just a place to stay, but a new standard for experiencing one of Italy’s most iconic destinations.
